Preview
Leon Edwards is set for his second defense of UFC Welterweight Championship in the headliner. He won the title from Kamaru Usman last year before defending it against him successfully in London this year. Colby Covington has won 8 fights in the last 8 years with only losses coming against Usman in the title bouts. Will he be able to win the welterweight title in his third attempt?
We also have an interesting co-main event with Alexandre Pantoja defending UFC Flyweight Championship against Brandon Royval in a rematch from 2021. Royval lost to Pantoja in their first encounter back in 2021, but has been on a 3-fight winning streak since then. Will he be able to take revenge against Pantoja, or will perish once again?
Another featured bout will see rising star Shavkat Rakhmonov facing Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson in a key welterweight fight. Rakhmonov remains unbeaten in his MMA career so far. Tony Ferguson’s star power means he will continue to feature on UFC PPV despite a 6-fight winning streak. He will face Dana White’s favorite Paddy Pimblett.
